Print Recipe

A quick and easy healthy breakfast smoothie bowl featuring creamy Greek yogurt, protein powder, frozen berries, and a crunchy granola topping. Perfect for a nourishing start to your day with a satisfying texture contrast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (8 fl oz) plain full-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup (5.3 oz) frozen mixed berries
  • 1 medium banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1 scoop (about 30 g) vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 cup (4 fl oz) unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (1.75 oz) crunchy granola
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional)
  • Fresh fruit for topping (sliced kiwi, strawberries, or blueberries)

Instructions

  1. Measure 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 cup frozen mixed berries, 1 medium sliced banana, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, and optional 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup.
  2. Add Greek yogurt, frozen berries, banana, protein powder, and almond milk to a high-speed blender. Blend on high for about 45 seconds until smooth, scraping down the sides if needed. The mixture should be thick but scoopable.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup if desired. Adjust thickness by adding more milk if too thick or more frozen fruit/yogurt if too thin.
  4. Pour the smoothie mixture into a serving bowl and smooth the top with a spatula or spoon.
  5. Sprinkle 1/2 cup crunchy granola evenly over the top. Add fresh fruit slices and a teaspoon of chia or flax seeds if desired.
  6. Serve immediately for the best creamy and crunchy texture contrast. If prepping ahead, keep granola separate and add just before serving.

Notes

Use frozen berries for a thicker, colder bowl. Avoid over-adding liquid to keep a scoopable texture. Toast granola lightly before serving if it tends to soften quickly. For vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with plant-based yogurt and use plant-based protein powder and gluten-free granola. Prepare smoothie base ahead but add granola and fresh toppings just before serving to maintain crunch.
